I always enjoy hearing from past guests I have served. If you’ve traveled with me, please let me know what you think, good or bad. Every little bit helps me refine my style to increase guest enjoyment.

I had the great pleasure of being guided by Joe Holman of Arizona Rocks Tours.  His Grand Canyon tour was excellent. His knowledge of Sedona, and the volcanoes around Flagstaff is tremendous. His ability to explain the geology and history of the Grand Canyon made my trip fantastic. Thanks, Joe, for a great and educational time.

100% 2 Thumbs Way Up on my recent Tour of Sedona with Joe. His knowledge of local area history, and geology, accompanied by his great story telling, made my afternoon with him an absolute pleasure. When you want something a little more personal than what the other local tour companies can offer Joe is your man!

My family took a tour of the Verde River with Joe in August. Wow, what a wealth of knowledge. It was a treat to take a tour with someone who really knows his stuff and even makes rocks seem interesting! I was a geology major in college and his tour made me want to exhume my old text books. I only wish we had used Joe as our tour guide when we were in the Grand Canyon. It would have been so much more interesting and informative. I guess that is a reason to return!

WOW! What a treasure trove of information! Your knowledge of the history is awesome. It actually makes me want to know more about the history of where I’m from (Kansas). Next time I’m in the Sedona area I’ll be calling to book a tour.
THANKS for sharing…

You should look at starting your own touring company – your knowledge and presentation are second to none!

My wife and I recently took (a) tour to the Grand Canyon with Joe Holman and we thoroughly enjoyed the entire tour. My wife and I have lived and traveled all over the world and this tour was the best and most informative one that we have ever had. Joe’s geological and historical knowledge was impressive and the service was excellent. I’ll also be sure to recommend that they see if they can get one of Joe’s tours because he does such a great job.

All the best, Aubrey Dobbs and Jackie Black

I should also note that Joe gave us several other route recommendations for trips in the area and on our return to the Las Vegas area for departure. All trips turned out great and we would not have known about them except for his input.

Thank you, Joe! I loved that bracelet but have noticed even more since I have been on the look-out. Thanks for bringing Fred Harvey to my attention. All your advice for shops, dining etc. was great – our motto was “we love that Joe”! It was a big help and our trip was even more awesome because of your tips.

My best to you, Kathleen

Our tours last Monday and Wednesday were fabulous!  The Grand Canyon was incredible – Ryan and Joe were wonderful. Joe’s ability to help with the different levels and types of rock was amazing, we loved all his information. And, what a wonderful story teller.  He helped us learn more about the Native Americans and we are very grateful.  It was a very important time during our vacation – we are sending all out thanks.

When we stopped at Cameron, Joe showed me the Fred Harvey bracelets.  I loved one particular one with inlaid turquoise. Joe mentioned the design and I have forgotten what he called it. I am at a loss.  Also, I have a great picture of the four of us that I have attached to this email.

Gratefully, Kathleen P. and Cathy S.
